Kruse Joins, Jachtmann Bluffs With Big Stack
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Diamond Poker Ambassador Max Kruse had just sat down when he opened his button to 14,000. Burak Simsek, who had lost most of his former big stack, called in the small blind and Jan-Peter Jachtmann defended his big blind.
The trio checked through the Q♠3♣4♣ flop for the 6♦ to arrive on the turn. Simsek checked again, but Jachtmann fired 40,000.
Kruse quickly folded before Simsek called after giving it some thought. Jachtmann then put Simsek all-in for his last 135,000 on the K♦ river, receiving a quick check-fold.
A grin appeared on Jachtmann's face as he tabled 9♠9♣7♠2♠ for just a pair of nines.
